Floor to stand through ½ kneel with upper extremity support
Floor to stand through ½ kneel with hands free
May still have a preferred method of transferring through ½ kneel/ dominant manner of transferring

36
Q

what is a reflex?

A

An involuntary response to a stimulus.

Monosynaptic or polysynaptic, short-range or long-range, uni or bilateral, symmetrical or asymm.

Old views: Motor control emerges from reflexes that are nested within hierarchically organized levels of the CNS.

In development, early on lower level reflexes are present, then higher level reflexes/more cortical control develops.

37
Q

how important are reflexes?

A

Previously given more focus than we currently do, based on understanding of neuroscience and motor control
Some standardized assessments still use them in determining age-equivalents
Residual presence of one is more telling than the normal emergence and integration of reflexes
You may also may see primitive reflexes with neurological insult later in life

38
Q

what is the significance of reflexes?

A

Developmental level and neural functioning could be somewhat explained
Obligatory or persistent reflexes may be indicative of atypical development.
Familiarizes you with the basic developmental model used in medicine and by most pediatricians.

39
Q

what are the limitations of reflexes?

A

Motor abilities are influenced by many factors beyond reflex maturation (mechanics, motivation, and environment).
Reflex theories assume CNS as the primary agent of developmental change.
Treatment focused on inhibiting primitive reflexes and promoting higher level reflexes is a narrow view of early intervention.
